4-day summer silent retreat in a monastery - silent retreat

Welcome to a magical 4-day silent retreat in the monastery!
Finding the essential in simplicity

Here, in the midst of the outer silence of this special place, I invite you to explore and experience inner silence. Under loving guidance and professional support, you can embark on a journey to yourself that will touch you deeply.

Let yourself be inspired and accompanied by a variety of mindfulness exercises, meditations, reflections, sensory experiences, mindful yoga, the body scan and walking meditations. Mindfulness based on the MBSR (mindfulness based stress reduction) program. Enjoy plenty of time to take in the beauty of the surrounding nature and calm down.

The practice of mindfulness leads to inner peace, serenity and well-being - and you are welcome to be part of this wonderful journey to yourself, whether you are just starting out or already have experience.

Throughout the retreat, I will be at your side with an open heart, and I will be happy to offer you personal one-to-one coaching if required. I look forward to accompanying and supporting you during this magical time out. Sign up today and experience how these days will touch your soul and leave you feeling strengthened and fulfilled.
